Amazon has canceled the game from The World of The Lord of the Rings

Two years ago, the announced MMO title from the world of The Lord of the Rings was canceled by Amazon. The game was announced in 2019 and developed by Amazon Game Studios alongside Chinese company Leyou Technologies Holdings. It was Leyou who was bought by the conglomerate Tencent Holdings in December, and subsequent negotiations on the agreement led to a dispute between Amazon and Tencent. As a result, this planned game was canceled.

An Amazon spokesman confirmed that after the acquisition of Leyou by Tencent, management was unable to provide the conditions for the continued development of the title. “We love The Lord of the Rings and we’re disappointed we won’t bring this game to customers.” said the spokesman. The team that worked on the game will be moved to other projects. Amazon continues to work on a series from the world of Mediterranean. However, he should have nothing to do with the game.

The information about the cancellation of the title is undoubtedly bad news for all fans of Tolkien’s work. This is not the first canceled game produced by Amazon. The company has canceled previously announced games such as Breakaway and Crucible. Another of the upcoming games, New World, has been repeatedly postponed.
